ABSTRACT
Gutek ... considers three classes of model which offer explanations of sexual harassment at work. The natural/biological explanation is used to argue that what has sometimes been called sexual harassment is really sexual attraction. According to this view such behaviour is neither sexist nor discriminatory and does not have harmful consequences. Most importantly, this approach admits the existence of the behaviour but denies the intent to harass ... This perspective is compatible with the individual deficit explanation ... which attributes sexual harassment to women’s own deficiency in handling an approach or the deficiency of individual men in controlling their natural desires.
